Yep, although more for the aluminium than the steel!

Aluminium and steel have interesting galvanic reactions when touching each other https://www.albanycountyfasteners.com/blog/stainless-steel-and-aluminum/

Magnavox Odyssey, Atari Home Pong, Coleco Telstar - that sort of thing. Mostly with built in games.

I’ve also removed from my wish list - hopefully they reverse the decision and I can add it back.

Amazingly he didn’t spend $44,000 - he spent a total of $214,000!

FTA: According to CBS News, citing a criminal complaint and affidavit of probable cause, Lawrence Kozak allegedly spent over $214,000 on his Apple ID, with just under $44,000 of that amount charged to a credit card associated with the parish.

Best I could find is the entire division makes about 35% profit and you’d have to assume some of that was YouTube

Revenue is not profit

As a native BrE speaker I’d say “I’ve X installed” is a little weird, fine in speech but written down it doesn't look right. “I’ve installed X” is fine.

The last track sounds almost green and verdant but I think it’s too frenetic to be a peaceful and lush planet. Maybe one with white water rapids and fast moving water?

You don’t pay tax on growth, you do on dividends. For large shareholders a high dividend can be a problem. Even for me, a very small time retail investor, I have to keep a balance of growth (like Apple) and dividend (I tend to use a dividend ETF so I can fairly reliably estimate my dividends) so I can avoid paying tax on the dividends.

Small updates but I think the spidertron change is good, although I’m not overly enthused by the new name of the item.
